The release adds protections limiting each app to its own files and network, and the blog said Pi Mainnet completed its upgrade to Protocol 28 on October 16, 2026.

## Claims and open questions

- Pi Network's blog said Pi Desktop 0.6.4 introduces an updated SoloHost remote connection that no longer requires users to open ports on their home networks or change router settings.
- According to the Pi Network blog, version 0.6.4 adds technical checks that run before installation and each time an app starts to validate that each app can only access its own files and network, and the same checks run when an app is first published.
- The Pi Network blog said Pi Mainnet completed its upgrade to Protocol 28 on October 16, 2026, improving how the network handles delays in transaction data and making smart contract maintenance easier for developers.
- What specific router, network or firewall requirements remain for Pioneers who choose not to opt into the new SoloHost remote connection?
- What changes to transaction handling or smart contract operations did Protocol 28 introduce, and what would confirm them, such as a protocol specification or release notes from the Pi Network team?

Evidence levels describe source coverage, not the probability that a report is true. Price moves and their timing cannot establish a cause; minute samples show an observed interval and alert thresholds are heuristics.
